I have a problem with a game I have. Everytime I load it up
the power light on my Amiga 500 shuts off. Although, the game continues
to run fine. Could this be a specific virus in the disk? I can't seem
to come up with anything. Any comments are appreciated! Thanks...

Any comments are appreciated! Thanks... Hmm. When your machine Guru's, does the power light blink on and off? Nothing's wrong. The game is simply turning off the audio filter. A risky enterprise, since the A1000 doesn't have an audio filter switch hooked up to that power light bit, but some games don't care about backward compatibility for some reason. -- Eric Lee Green (318) 984-1820 P.O.

Then again, it does absolutely nothing in the 1000, so why the hell does it matter? --------------------------- _ _ _ _ ___ __ __ _ __ _ | Kurt "Koleman" Koller | ( )/ ) /,\ ( ) ( __)( \/ ) ( ) ( \ ( ) | P.O.
